Awesome! It's so nice being able to find your maps so easily now !
|
Really great maps, all of them.
|
I'm not really a big fan of melee-based custom maps, but these look incredible. I'd trade many of the current map pool maps for some of these.

thanks!
It is unfortunate that we can only publish 5 maps at a time, however, all of the maps that become iCCup 1.0 releases will be published, 5+ and so on. Remember that if you get a chance to play on one of the current projects available on Bnet, im interested in your feedback!

Sanshorn Valley > all Blizzard 1v1 ladder maps except Lost Temple, really nice maps dude 
Can't wait to see more from you, but the maps further down your list gets a bit stale (Refering to Uros Island and Liberty Isle mostly) but the rest seems fun/good looking/playable. Good job

Good job  lol Uros Island is indeed stale ;]
If something ever comes of that, itll get an overhaul! Right now my main focus are the "Sanshorn" series maps, Sanshorn Valley being worked right now and Sanshorn Sands in the background.

will they be published on all servers?

Yes, that is on the table for discussion tonight actually. Unfortunately because of the 5 map limit and server separation, we need others to publish them in every region. iCCup fortunately has many players in many regions. I will update with the server availability information soon.

"lol Uros Island is indeed stale ;] "
I think uros islands looks good if that's sand behind it, if its water then prolly not. all the maps look great to me expect river point (don't like the way it looks balance wise or visual), lowtown (l i think streets (or something else) instead of the empty space would look better and add uniqueness), and sandshorn sands(my mistake thought it was one of your early maps, not current project). you're also quite good at naming them.
edited: to be more constructive.
|
Yea sands is pretty far from finished.
|
Sanshorn Mist has been updated after commentary from the iCCup Map Series.
- gold is not scoutable from the corner towers, only the 4rth. - islands are no longer seigeable from land. - minerals in main rotated to provide more protection from units coming up the "patio" - a little more space added behind the minerals in main for turrets, zerg tech, cannons - corner towers shifter slightly more towards 4th
|
Damn alot of them look good, keep up the good work and maybe we will start to see these maps used in tournaments
|
Other changes:
- Violet Heights added to current projects.
- Orbital Divide updated Terrain added behind nat minerals Doodads improved
- Sanshorn Valley updated High ground expansions changed to gold 7 and 2 o'clock expansions moved forward to provide terrain for turrets/cannons/crawlers
|
Frostbite has been updated and a map thread made.
changes:
- Choke in the middle widened to address accessability - Textures added\ - high ground paths leading away from the destructible rocks in the middle were widened by a 1/2 width.
Considerations:
Still trying to think of something to do with the 11 and 5 oclock cliffs behind the gold and open space above the 930 and 330 expos.
|
Orbital Divide:
Was watching an iCCup stream where Queens and Roaches were able to walk around the destructible rock to gain access to the gold patch.
Otherwise, really good looking maps, any update when we will get them on the EU servers?

yea i as a little dumbfounded when i saw that... im only hapy it didnt particularly effect that specific game. A fix is now up along with a remake of the center area.
|
wow mayday just made me think of N64 007 not the map but the name, sick maps cant wait to have the game or w.e want to play these so i can school some scrubs.
|
the only one i didn't like was hellion ridge, the rest are made just like brood war maps, and tha's what sc2 really needs. Are any of these on B.net yet?
|
konicki, Violet Heights is delicious! Visually distinctive, center is pretty interesting. Are the chokes just outside of natural unbuildable (there are little thingies in line there)?
